I'd be mad too if I peaked creatively 33 years ago and have yet to make something as cool as a sequel to a low budget film made in 84.
The disparaging line aside, he has a point. The people who did enjoy T1 and T2 have spoken time and time again with the other sequels that also didn't work.
The "new audience" isn't there because they don't go to movies from franchises they know are shitty. They were not around for T1 and T2, back when you had creativity. You let them destroy something you created for decades before you stepped in and put a stop to it. Some of then had redeeming qualities, but if you take out the terminator name from the title, it's just a man versus machine movie.
And that stop you did by the way, was just retreading the parts from the sequels no one really likes, and no one wanted to see. The killing of John Connor was a slap in the face. Right in front of his mother, with Arnie less than 10 feet away. The whole reason for the first two movies just didn't matter to you anymore.
You're telling me the mother who was in the process of breaking herself out of Tuscadero, who didn't actually need saving, who knows exactly how to kill a terminator, with her head on a swivel, who could sniff out a play like that coming before it happened ... wasn't careful with her son?
Come on now. You shat on your own legacy too there pal. Remember, you're the one that added No Fate For What We Make.

How about No Fate For What We Let Others Destroy.
Yeah the whole "no fate but what we make" dies when John Connor dies and a whole new machine uprising happens
Sounds like it what on the whole 90s Sarah Connor series as well.
